2020 Pittsburgh Pirates Roster
A Look Back at the Season
A Disappointing Season for the Pittsburgh Pirates
The 2020 Pittsburgh Pirates were a Major League Baseball team that played in the National League Central Division. The team finished with a record of 19-41, finishing in fifth place in the division. The Pirates' season was highlighted by the emergence of several young players, including outfielder Ke'Bryan Hayes and pitcher Mitch Keller. However, the team was also hampered by injuries to several key players, including infielder Colin Moran and outfielder Gregory Polanco.
The Pirates' offense struggled throughout the season, ranking near the bottom of the league in several offensive categories. The team also had a poor bullpen, which contributed to their struggles in close games. Despite their disappointing record, the Pirates did show some signs of improvement in the second half of the season. The team won 12 of its final 29 games, and several young players emerged as potential future stars.
The Pirates are hoping to build on their late-season success in 2021. The team has added several new players, including infielder Todd Frazier and outfielder Ben Gamel. The Pirates are also hoping for a healthy season from Moran and Polanco. If the Pirates can stay healthy and get production from their young players, they could be a surprise team in the NL Central in 2021.
